Questions & Answers about הם זוג חדש, אבל הם כבר מדברים על מתי להתחתן.
Yes. In the present tense, Hebrew usually does not use a separate word for "am / is / are".
So:
- הם זוג חדש literally looks like they a new couple but it means they are a new couple.
This is completely normal Hebrew. A form of להיות (to be) is usually omitted in the present tense.
Because זוג is a singular noun meaning a pair / a couple.
So Hebrew is structured like:
- they [are] a new couple
Even though the couple contains two people, the noun זוג itself is grammatically singular, just like English a couple is singular in form.
